hi guy's hope you are all well, i just thought i would let you know how jordan's appointment went today as you seem like a family friend to me . As you know jordan had an mri scan a couple of weeks ago as his xrays didn't look good and comparing them with his last mri things are not good the arthritis is getting worse and as a result he has been put on the max dose of meth 20 mg plus his steriods and diclo he is now also being refered to bristol childrens hospital to see a dr clinch :cry: for a second opinion on his treatment options . Things seem to go from bad to worse for him but he just gets on with it wish i could be the same still i would sooner me do the worrying than him he just thinks it will be a nice day trip out.xx jenny

    It is so much harder for you, you are on the outside looking in: you know what this entails, you are in the position where you cannot change anything or do anything to make it better. As a mum that must be a killer. At least he is being seen and they are thinking about what to do next: there are some children already on enbrel, so an anti TNF may be an option for Jordan - you know we are behind you every step of the way.
